Well, since I already have all the packages I wanted to upgrade, I removed the ones in /var/cache/apt/archives/partial/ and copied the ones missing to /var/cache/apt/archives/ Next, I tried to run dselect with mounted fs installation, but that doesn't help as it requires Packages.gz from each directory, plus (or so I believe) a copy (or partial copy) of the directories (main, contrib, non-free...) ... probably meaning that I would have to create those directories in /var/cache/apt/archives/ and I'm frightened to mess with the dpkg database. Then, I ran `apt-get install <packages>', hoping that it would be able to realize that the requested packages are in /var/cache/apt/archives/, but it started downloading again, so I exited apt-get. Since I already have all the packages, how can I best use apt-get or dselect to install them all? I find dpkg is a nice flexible tool, but I would have to go through `dpkg -i <package>' one by one (and for upgrading things such as libc6 it's a real pain due to interdependencies).
